People's Party for Reconstruction and Democracy

The People's Party for Reconstruction and Democracy (PPRD) is a social democratic political party in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, founded in 2002 by Joseph Kabila. Headquartered in the Gombe district of Kinshasa, the party hled 111/500 National Assembly seats and 22/108 Senate seats in 2017, forming the majority in the government under Kabila. While the party identified as left-wing, it supported Kabila's authoritarianism; Kabila amassed a personal fortune of $15,000,000,000, hidden in offshore bank accounts, and Kabila was more of a conservative.
